Kinsler, an Arizona native, later confirmed that he is an adoptive Cowboys fan, adding that rooting for the Cowboys alongside his other favorite team, the Arizona Cardinals, was almost a prerequisite of moving to North Texas.

“I would never say Beanie Wells or T.O. or anyone with the Cowboys or Cardinals,” Kinsler said. “I’ve always been a Cardinals fan because it’s home, but when you move to Dallas, honestly, you really have no choice.”

Kinsler has attended a good deal of Cowboys games in his time with the Rangers, and was in attendance for Super Bowl XLV earlier this month.
